Ebony and ivory
live together
in perfect harmony
Side by side
on my piano keyboard,
oh lord, why don't we?
We all know that people
are the same
wherever we go
There is good
and bad in everyone,
We learn to live,
we learn to give
Each other
what we need
to survive
together alive.

Ebony and ivory
live together
in perfect harmony
Side by side
on my piano keyboard,
oh lord,
why don't we?

Ebony, ivory living
in perfect harmony
Ebony, ivory, ooh

We all know
that people
are the same
wherever we go
There is good
and bad in everyone
We learn to live,
we learn to give
Each other
what we need
to survive
together alive.

Ebony and ivory
